Police: Woman gets drunk, rams ex's truck

A Gastonia woman is in jail after officers say she got drunk, chased down her ex-boyfriend's truck and repeatedly drove into it.

Sierra Nicole Robinette, of Gardner Ridge Drive, is charged with impaired driving and misdemeanor assault with a deadly weapon for the incident, which occurred around 5:10 a.m. on Sunday. The incident occurred near the intersection of East Long Avenue and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Way.

Police say a chase preceded the collision.

Robinette, 21, consented to a breath alcohol test and registered a 0.09. Anything 0.08 or above is automatically considered impaired in North Carolina.

Robinette was booked without bond into Gaston County Jail a little after 8 a.m. Sunday. Magistrates have categorized the arrest as a domestic dispute.
